We are in agreement, I guess I just needed to specify I was referring to using this as a replacement for a gaming desktop. That's why I'm not really excited for anything beyond something simple to stream my PC to my living room or other supported device. An entire OS? No thanks beyond it...

I'm still not seeing it. Hundreds of great games are already running natively on SteamOS. Watch for announcements in the coming weeks about all the AAA titles coming natively to SteamOS in 2014. Access the full Steam catalog of nearly 3000 games and desktop software titles via in-home...

Where has it said that, outside of streaming? If that's the case, then yeah my bad, but nothing I saw suggested otherwise.

The reason to know it is linux-based for most people is because only 185 games and 13 demos on Steam games work on it.

I just don't see anything to get excited about linux-wise, they've been pushing it for a while and less than 9% of games on Steam support it. That's 180 vs over 2000. I own almost 2x more games on Steam than are compatible for Linux, and a number that aren't on Steam too. Perhaps in a few...

right click on it, open it in a new tab, and/or increase font size in your browser to enlarge it. Only thing really exciting to me is partnering with NVidia for the streaming. Too much OMG LINUX for me. No announced smaller solution to handle purely streaming would be a disappointment...

They're talking about games under the new program(s) they just launched a month or so ago.

The news to me is the streaming, what I want now is a $99 (or less) HDMI dongle (or Roku-sized form factor device) letting me use a PS4 controller or other common devices (wireless/bluetooth) to play all compatible games on my big screen off of my windows box. If I ever have to rely on Linux...

Gigabytes yo.

Yeah, we knew the PS3 part last month -http://www.thesixthaxis.com/2013/08/...ng-to-ps3-too/ Not sure about it being posted here or not.

I think the download size on GTAV is closer to 17gb. It's the mandatory install on both consoles that is in the neighborhood of 8gb. Nothing we didn't know already... they'll be able to stream whichever titles they get new distribution agreements with, one of a number of reasons I'll be...

Some might be interested in some of the stuff here. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/dc...league-edition

Bioshock Infinite for $11 w/ code GFDSEP20http://digital.gamefly.com/#!/pc You'll get Mafia II in the next 10 days too, for free.

Felt like a series finale, so glad it wasn't.

I have a lot of those same problems/concerns, but have a little more faith in the PS4. Sony as a company doesn't pivot very well. They make decisions and then it's full throttle until they sputter out and/or fail spectatcularly, little in the way of changing things with few exceptions. What...

Up to 10 authorized devices can use your library remotely too, none simultaneously is all (including you as the local user). I haven't touched my Steam library in a week or two, this whole time friends could have been playing. Seems interesting for a 1.0. As it develops I hope exceptions...

Steam Family Sharing coming.http://store.steampowered.com/sharing Too bad we can't have that in a gaming console ...

That's pretty cool. Wish costumes had abilities tied to them when applicable. The Juggernaut costume for Colossus for example.

Tonight's episode was like 45 minutes

Xbox One: 11.22.13

FF14, a couple of Madden franchises... one offline and one with a couple of friends, tinkering with WoW, Marvel Heroes and slowly plodding through Prototype 2, one of my favorite titles in the last year or two.

It's been announced that season 7 will conclude the series. Show has jumped the naked, bloody, vampire-fairy shark.

Wonder if it could be 2015+ before Gaikai stuff comes to non-US territories? http://www.gamespot.com/news/sony-ex...delays-6413968

My 2 year old loves his Kindle Fire HD w/ Amazon Free Time. Dealing w/ apps is infinitely better than dealing with cartridges too, and you have so many more to choose from and allow/disallow. Not to mention all of the interactive books, coloring, puzzles, etc. Nintendo lost my children as...

It's valued at that, not sure that includes legal fees though. Some of that is also going to research and other things. Those who have diagnosed conditions are eligible for up to $5m. A lot of the 'me too' litigants are hopefully told to fuck off and those who actually need this get it...

James Spader is Ultron in Avengers 2.

Eh, DS4 is not a carbon copy of previous iterations by any means, that's a pretty ridiculous statement.

Sorkin on the latest episode.

Most shows take holiday weekends off, Labor Day is the 2nd.

Loved the resignation speech from Don. "The recent event's totality of calumnies, indignities and deceits have weighed most heavily upon my family. Thus, acutely aware one cannot rebuild their hearth of home amongst the ruins of their U.S. House office, for the sake of my loved ones I must...

Been playing fine for a while. And then my 2 year old son hit the switch on my power strip. Was able to get back on Lamia after a dozen or so 1017, but blah. I was pissed.

Apparently Ben Affleck has been confirmed as Batman. dotdotdot.

Was neat to see Antonia from Top Chef on the first episode. Enjoying it. Could almost use a general reality food shows thread.

Bradley Cooper reportedly offered Rocket Raccoon. http://www.slashfilm.com/bradley-coo...of-the-galaxy/

Have they actually dropped anywhere yet? Amazon has had theirs at current prices for a week or more.

Overall pretty unventful, probably would have been better served w/ a media briefing themselves.

Global unveil of an unlit crowd while someone used the PS4 UI in the distance.

Gamestop is doing a thing where if you buy a current gen game and want to upgrade to the next gen version you can do so within 30 days and they'll give you $50 trade-in credit. Amazon just launched the same thing but appears to be only for the Xbox One, and you don't even have to buy your...

My son went from just marveling at my wife's no-longer-used iPhone 4 to knowing his way around it really well in no time (long pressing to close apps/get out of an app he doesn't want to be in, knows what screens his favorite apps are on, etc). We've since upgraded to a Kindle Fire and Amazon...
